I have been with this company for 4 years. I have been through 3 managers. I believe in staying assistant manager because of all the long hours managers put in and do not get paid for. Its like watching a cartoon show here. A manager becomes so stress out that i notice their eyeballs start popping out and their hair gets mussel up and you can see the tension all other them!
Everything everyone is saying is true. Well i guess it has finally become my turn for them to get rid of me. I haven't had a raise because every year inventory is short, but sales are always up. I have had days and nights where nobody work but me. I hung in there. With every new manager i tried to do what each one wants done.
As an assistant manager there is lots for me to do. The problem is, they only put me on the register. I am not allow in the office, not allow to put up stock, not allow to go only to the middle of the store and oh... If there is anyway that i can keep from going to the bathroom they would be happy with that too.
Then they sat me down and explain that i was not doing my job? After 4 years of never being short i was $20.00 then $9.00 and now i even left the safe open? We have cameras but of course they can't show me the tape to show me personally that i did these things. I got the feeling that she thought i would jump up and quit.
Well, i am not like that. I inform them i wasn't going anywhere without a pink slip. I offer to be drop to a 3rd key since we don't have one and they could get another assistant. We only have 2 people that can close being nobody can pass a stanton test. I was inform that my pay would drop? I couldn't help but laugh and inform them that state law says your pay can be raise but not lower. Oh my they seen i really had a brain!
Over the years there i have busted my back, took insults, been accused of doing things i didn't do and go on and on. The reason i am still there? I am pass 50 so i wanted to retired here. The insurance is great and i want to keep it. The customers, well i always feel there is a story to every person from all walks of life. People are interesting. Especially the poor. As long as they tell me i am good to them i will do my best to hang in there... Me
